Default Twist-on BNC connectors

RST Engineering wrote:
Those ARE BNC, Robert. What the OP was asking was whether or not the way
the cable was attached to the connector could be one of the kind where you
simply strip the outer sheath back an inch or so, strip the center insulator
back a quarter of an inch, put a threaded ferrule over the outer shield of
the connector, slide the inner insulator into the body of the connector and
then thread the ferrule into a mating thread on the connector. No crimp, no
solder.

The consensus, and I heartily agree, that those "twist on" BNC connectors
aren't worth powdered bat **** as an RF connector, much less an aircraft RF
connector.


I dunno about that, Jim. Prices seem to be going up.
